Chapter 2175 Despicable Jerk
- "My husband—Donald Cadman—is the eldest son of the Cadman family, a clan worth several billion. I, on the other hand, come from an ordinary household. Both my parents died when I was young, so I grew up an orphan. Years ago, my grandfather saved Donald's grandfather. After my parents passed, Donald's grandfather brought me into his home and raised me as a granddaughter. Living beneath the same roof, the old gentleman and I shared every sunrise and sunset. In time, he treated me like flesh and blood, and I came to call him Grandpa with all my heart."
- "Before I knew it, I was old enough to marry. One evening, Grandpa asked if there was someone I loved. I told him there wasn't. Then he asked what I thought of Donald. I stayed quiet, but Grandpa was sharp—he could see I'd been harboring a quiet crush on Donald for years. Grandpa only smiled and promised he would see me happy—that the rest of my life would be blessed."
- "Soon after, Donald suddenly began courting me. Imagine it—after keeping my feelings buried so long, the man himself walked into the open and said he wanted me. I was overjoyed and agreed to be his girlfriend at once. Those dating days were sweet enough. Donald's nature is cool, almost distant, yet he often took me out for dinner, symphonies, movies. For more than a year, we never quarreled. When that year ended, we followed the script and walked straight into marriage. His aloofness still stings sometimes, leaving an ache of loneliness. But Grandpa fills the quiet—every day I garden with him, help him walk the songbirds, chat, play chess. The hours pass, and life feels full enough. Now we've been married two years. Grandpa wants great-grandchildren and I... I want a baby too."
